Information about Haeger Pottery!
Haeger Potteries
Dundee Illinois
1871-Present
The Haeger Potteries company was begun by David H. Haeger in 1871. The firm that began as a brickyard in Dundee, Illinois continues to this day as one of the few remaining large-scale manufacturers of industrial artware.
The firm began producing artware in 1914, and the contributions of former Fulper employee Martin Stangl to its success is probably incalculable. While Haeger produced a less expensive product than Fulper (by using a lighter clay body and high gloss, low-fire glazes), there is an undeniable similarity between the early products of the two firms.
Haeger pottery has not kept pace value-wise with the products of its former competitors (like Red Wing and Hull). This is somewhat undeserved. Haeger vases and figurals often have modeling and glaze quality of great invention and skill. While the Art Deco designs of Royal Hickman have always attracted some attention, the pre-Hickman era Haeger pottery is particularly undervalued, especially the ware designed for the the Arts & Crafts market.
The only book about Haeger to date is Collecting Royal Haeger by Lee Garmon and Doris Frizzell. The book is useful primarily for its reproduction of catalog pages. L-W Books will publish a volume on Haeger this fall by David Dilley. Joe Paradis will author a Haeger for Schiffer in 1997 which hopefully will fill in many gaps about the company.

Haeger was the feature pottery at a special one day exhibit sponser by the association in conjunction with its annual show & sale.
